Question

Evaluate the following:
$\cos\Big(\tan^{-1}\frac{24}{7}\Big)$

✓

Answer

$\cos\Big(\tan^{-1}\frac{24}{7}\Big)$
$=\cos\begin{bmatrix}\cos^{-1}\frac{1}{\sqrt{1+\big(\frac{24}{7}\big)^2}}\end{bmatrix}$ $\bigg[\because\ \tan^{-1}\text{x}=\cos^{-1}\frac{1}{\sqrt{1+\text{x}^2}}\bigg]$
$=\cos\begin{bmatrix}\cos^{-1}\frac{1}{\sqrt{1+\frac{576}{49}}}\end{bmatrix}$
$=\cos\bigg[\cos^{-1}\frac{1}{\frac{25}{7}}\bigg]$
$=\cos\Big[\cos^{-1}\frac{7}{25}\Big]$
$=\frac{7}{25}$
